NEC Technology Review Specialties

Tai is a specialist for NEC on fuels, especially cleaner ones like methane and hydrogen, and bio-fuels such as ethanol and biodiesel. The following technologirs come from the Top 100 Energy Technologies list, for which Tai serves as the NEC specialist.

Brief Bio

Tai W. Robinson ::: Clean Fuel Specialist

Tai Robinson drives his H2TOY Tacoma to renewable energy events around America demonstrating hydrogen, natural gas, ethanol, biodiesel, propane, methanol, solar and wind electricty to promote the clean fuel revolution. In 2003 his truck made history by leading Dennis Weaver's Drive to Survive from coast to coast using compressed hydrogen for fuel. Tai teaches about the benefits of cleaner fuels to government officials, business owners, fleet operators and students at primary schools and universities. Tai got his start in energy conservation very early on by watching his father design and build engines that run on hydrogen fuel. Later on while Tai was in school he also became a champion athlete competing on the World Cup tour as an Aerialist for the U.S. Freestyle Ski Team. Since then, Tai has joined forces with his father, Fred Robinson to create Intergalactic Hydrogen, a vehicle integration, fuel system upgrade and technology advancement enterprise. Intergalactic offers cleaner fuel vehicles to fleets and retail customers. To learn more about how you can declare energy independence, start your search at: http://www.IntergalacticHydrogen.com

Interviews

Download (13 Mb; mp3) - On June 9, 2008, Sterling D. Allan conducted a 1-hour, live interview with Tai Robinson as part of the Free Energy Now radio series. An overview of how to convert existing vehicles into clean fuel vehicles, running on multiple local fuels. A look at the process, costs, and other considerations regarding alternative fuels in general.

Hydrogen embrittlement not a substantial threat - Hydrogen-conversion expert, and clean-fuel specialist, Tai Robinson, responds to assertion that when hydrogen gas dissolves into the structure of certain metals such as aluminum & steels, it can cause cracking and failure of metal components.

"Even with the increase in cost of natural gas during the hurricanes, the cost of CNG for my vehicle was less than 1/3 the price of gasoline. Renewable hydrogen in Phoenix Arizona is less than 1/2 the cost of gasoline. With a little planing, existing infrastructure can be used to get any where across the country without the use of gasoline."

"It is time to choose a cleaner fuel for transportation requirements. Everyone has the opportunity to switch right now. Your investment will be paid off weather you use government grants and tax credits, or not. With home refueling you can even save time as well as money."

"I know lots of people are tired of being held hostage by the oil pump. If you want to do something about it, call me." (March 5, 2006)
